Why, I know of your kind.
You are one of those “adventurers,” are you not? I hear you do all kinds of things--fighting with monsters, cooking, and collecting all sorts of little knick-knacks...

My information is in error? If that is the case, then I am truly sorry. I am fresh off the boat from the Near East, and adventurers are still quite exotic to me!

Perhaps you could answer my questions. For example, I have heard that you adventurers are a rowdy lot, always playing outside and showing up looking as if you had wallowed in mud! Could such a thing possibly be true?

Are you really so dirty?
≺Selection Dialog≻Give me some mud to wallow in!
No! My equipment glistens!

My goodness, it is true!
In that case, you must need powerful detergent to remove your stains, and I happen to have exactly what you need! This solution was developed by the most skilled alchemists in the entire Near East. Surely a must-have for any adventurer!

Now for the all-time low price of ≺Numeric Parameter 14≻ gil!

Buy the detergent for ≺Numeric Parameter 14≻ gil?
≺Selection Dialog≻Yes.
No. Being dirty is fun!

Well then, here you are! I will only give you enough for one cleaning, though. Using any more than that would erode cermet!

Oh? I am afraid you do not have enough gil.

Oh my, such confidence.
Could it be because you possess that remarkable armor I have heard about in rumors...artifact armor, I believe it is called?

I am not finished, so wait! Undoubtedly your artifact armor was once something to take pride in, but at present it is surely quite battered from your adventuring, not to mention that it has simply become old and could use a boost...correct?

If I were you, my dear friend, I would take your precious artifact armor and restore it! Rejuvenate it! Give it new life! Does that not sound like the proper course of action?

I know exactly what you need. You absolutely must bring the necessary ingredients, and I will send them with your artifact armor to the craftsmen of the Near East for a miniscule fee in ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻!

There, I have contracts with the most skilled artisans, who will make your artifact armor shine like never before.

Of course, it shall be difficult for you to give up your beloved artifact armor, if but for a short while. However, please inform me if you work up the courage, and I will tell you the ingredients I require.

≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 4≻.

In order to restore the ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 1≻, you must bring me ≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Marker: 7F8103≻≺Item Parameter 2≻, ≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Marker: 7F8103≻≺Item Parameter 3≻, and ≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Marker: 7F8103≻≺Item Parameter 4≻. Also, I require ≺Marker: 7F8307≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 16≻ for expenses.

When restoration is complete, your artifact armor will look like this!

I require the ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻ up front. They are quite valuable to collectors in the Near East, and I am sure that you would like to clear up valuable space, yes?

Yes, what do you require?
Would you like some powerful detergent?

What would you like?
≺Selection Dialog≻Just wanted to chat.
Ask about the detergent.

What would you like?
≺Selection Dialog≻Just wanted to chat.
Buy detergent.
Ask about artifact restoration.
Ask about ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻.

In order to restore the ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 0≻, you must bring me ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 1≻, ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 2≻, and ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 3≻. I ask that you submit them all together.

I require ≺Marker: 7F8304≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 0≻ as payment. Thus far, you have given me ≺Numeric Parameter 7≻.

Why ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻, you ask? To be quite frank, I do not know much about them beyond the fact that they were used as currency by the turtle-like beastmen of this continent, but they happen to be quite valuable among Near Eastern collectors.

Thus far, you have given me ≺Marker: 7F8307≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 16≻.

If you would like, I will exchange merchandise for your coins. Would you happen to have any?

You have not yet given me any ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻.

Exchange ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻?
≺Selection Dialog≻I changed my mind.
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 0≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 8≻ coins).
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 1≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 9≻ coins).
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 2≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 10≻ coins).
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 3≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 11≻ coins).
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 4≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 12≻ coins).
≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 5≻ (≺Numeric Parameter 13≻ coins).

I regret to inform you that you do not have enough ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻ for that item.

You adventurers truly are amazing. You have an eye for fine goods. It may not look like much, but this item is of the highest quality.

≺Marker: 7F8001≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Marker: 7F8103≻≺Item Parameter 0≻? Are you sure?
≺Selection Dialog≻No, give me more time.
Yes, that's the one.

≺Marker: 7F8300≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 16≻, correct?
This brings your current total to ≺Marker: 7F8307≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 16≻. Please take care not to lose track.

I apologize, but I cannot take any more ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻ from you.

You have collected the proper materials, but unfortunately you lack the required amount of ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8202≻≺Item Parameter 16≻ for payment.

You need ≺Marker: 7F8307≻≺Marker: 7F8102≻≺Item Parameter 16≻, but you have only given me ≺Numeric Parameter 6≻ thus far. That would not even pay the cost of postage to the Near East and back!

Your artifact armor will be handled with utmost care. Now if you please, I will send it with the materials you have collected to the craftsmen of the Near East. But fear not, as it shall be worth the wait.

Your ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 1≻ is still undergoing restoration in the Near East. Please wait a while longer.

I apologize for the wait. The restored ≺Marker: 7F8101≻≺Marker: 7F8201≻≺Item Parameter 1≻ has just arrived from the Near East. May it be of help in your adventures.

I must apologize. I am currently out of stock, so would you please come back a bit later?

The next shipment is not scheduled to come in until ≺Marker: 7FAC04≻ (≺Marker: 7FAB04≻ Earth time).

Hm?
It seems that you already possess some ≺Marker: 1A0F≻... You must be very skilled in the ways of commerce. I can see it in your eyes.

I came from the Near East to peddle my wares. I heard that there are simply hordes of gullib--err, that is, I have heard of the great adventurers that roam this land, and wish to be of service to them. If you happen to know of any seasoned adventurers, I ask that you bring them to me. Be sure to tell them of my fabulous goods!
